Before I’d really made a name... A masquerade party in a country estate The mansion of some millionaire The showbiz elite, the creme de la creme (Princess Margaret was there) Outside it was snowing, champagne was flowing The glasses refilled to the brim Fairylights twinkling, ev’ryone laughing And then there was him A man in a mask, we danced for a while And the party began to get wild Then he smiled And one thing led to another Yes one thing led to another We stole upstairs for a kiss But one thing led to another We found an empty room - and it was bliss But after this He asked me for money Demanded I pay him I couldn’t believe my own ears He said it’s understood Rich parties like this Said he’s been doing it for years “There’s been a mistake, you never said anything” He said that he’d told me downstairs I told him to leave, his eyes flashed with rage And one thing led to another Yes, one thing led to another A fist, then a kick, then one more One thing led to another And he left me there curled up on the floor I had two broken two ribs - both eyes blackened. I never saw him again Oh Gayle… Then one thing led to another And one month Led to nine Yes one thing led to another And I gave away the baby that was mine
